Photocopy of a photograph taken at the Maidenek
concentration camp in June 1979, showing one of the disinfection gas
chambers thought to be a homicidal gas chamber. Between the two
doors with their inspection peep-holes, the darker bricks are of
Prussian blue color, a sign of prolonged use of “Blausäure/ blue
acid”, in other words, hydrocyanic or prussic acid sold as a
delousing agent under the name of “Zyklon-B”.
